Nothing neighborhood related, just never felt I could make red shoes work.

I don't see the appeal of a $200 shoe in these pics. I love Kobe and his signature line but the last great shoe was the VI. Not a fan of lunar or half zoom insert setup.
Kobe shouldn't have played a whole season in 8s. That probably took a year off his career.

These as a high top [emoji]128293[/emoji][emoji]128293[/emoji][emoji]128293[/emoji]
The black/red and the "rumored/unofficial" purple and blue pair are really nice. Might cop them.
But I really hope that they will do highs again.

I think a high top version of the lows would look really good! The XI lows remind me of a pair of low top air mags. I like the XI's and plan on picking up a pair.

Seeing these shoes in THIS video on my 55 inch TV in super HD made me do an immediate 180. I am all in. They look incredible.

4 years later and you all still have so much disdain for the VII 
I'm starting to believe I'm the only person in NT that the VII worked well for on court :\, maybe because I really only used the cushlon insert, with the strap, and the elite insert with full length zoom. For me, the VII is right up there performance wise with the II, V, VIII, and 2K4.
As far as the XI goes, I've done a 180 after seeing the official reveal. Most definitely looking forward to seeing how this me Flyweave performs on court. The flyknit on the IX, and X was pointless with all that fuse under it.

I know this is sort of minor detail, but having that fabric lining on the midsole insert is nice... was good with the Bron XI as there's less sliding in the shoe. At least they gave us that

I am looking forward to these... but don't think I will pay $200 off the bat

I'm another one. I loved the 7's. They were stiff out the box but after a few wears they were amazing. I still ball in mine today.4 years later and you all still have so much disdain for the VII

Aesthetically, I love the 7's. Mine are beat to death. However, they absolutely killed my feet on court. I don't know if it's me, but I can't and have never been able to feel zoom.4 years later and you all still have so much disdain for the VII

Those last pictures of the XIs are smoking. Why isn't anyone tripping over the box. It looks like crap.

I'm not tripping about the box, because it's a box haha. But I will admit it is a downgrade from the last few boxes

I don't really care about the box. Kobes used to have regular orange Nike boxes for years til the VIs, which never really bothered me.
